A.   23 August 2008: I agree with marieclaire. Neither she nor he or the same anymore. It's like she's in love with an idea or a memory, not a person. What should be a concern is the way she's letting it play out. As in, why contact each other now? Who initiated ... (read in full...)

A.   29 May 2008: I've had friends like that, but since I've gotten older, I've cut off those friendships and learned to recognize and avoid red flags in potential new friendships. Your friend lacks personality and is using you to make herself more interesting. ... (read in full...)

A.   21 May 2008: You could talk to your mom, but without letting her know the whole truth. I'm not sure what you're asking or what you hope to get out of this. You can easily buy a back massager, which works well as a vibrator. I don't recommend letting your mom ... (read in full...)

A.   21 May 2008: This sounds like one of those rare situations when an ultimatum would be acceptable. She has no kids, and has a job and can support herself, and while it's fine to still live together for comfort and friendship after they're broken up, now that ... (read in full...)

A.   11 May 2008: It's not so much that he is "supposed to" call or not. If he wants to talk to you, he will call you. If you want to talk to him, you can certainly call him, but be aware that you are pursuing him, and that he will probably give you excuses why he ... (read in full...)
